Introducing the Committee to End Medicare: Romney-Ryan 2012

by Jed Lewison

Huffington Post and NBC News are reporting that Mitt Romney will name Paul Ryan when he announces his vice presidential candidate tomorrow morning in Norfolk, Virginia. Although their reports aren't as definitive, Politico and The Weekly Standard all say that Ryan appears to be Romney's pick.

So I guess that means Mitt Romney has finally figured out a way to deflect attention from his secret tax returns, for at least a day or two, anyhow. On the other hand, the thing everyone is going to be talking about instead is the fact that he just picked as his running mate the architect of the GOP's plan to end Medicare as we know it. In other words, Mitt Romney is still the gift that keeps on giving.
